TREE OF KNOWLEDGE?

,.This picture found on the Internet intrigued me and I wanted to get input

from others as to what they saw in it.

My initial thought was the "The Tree of Knowledge" from the Bible story in the

book of Genesis, but others have shared a different interpretation with me.

I invite input from you & hope you'll share your insights with me.....Gayle

I am a horrible person

I did not see it as a tree. I saw it as fasces and the book was being destroyed. Destroyed because it was politically offensive And coming from the canter where the tree and book were destroyed was the creature that survived. What is it? What is it? I don't know, but I think it will try to rule.

I have dark imaginings but my garden is dainty and delicate, knitterdi

Hi Zil--Someone else had similar thoughts to yours when I 1st printed this in Story Time. Another thought that hadn't occurred to me--someone said it reminded them of a Family Tree with a book of ancestors information,;'gayle

dear Gayle, the more you read the more you know! When I looked at the Tree of Knowledge I thought paper is made from wood. The tree being wood and the paper being a book. Sorry I'm first thoughts weren't more insightfull.
